Product design and specifications may be changed without notice.
Still image warning
Avoid displaying still images (like jpeg picture files) or still image element (like TV programme logo, panorama or 4:3 image format, stock or news bar
at screen bottom etc.) on the screen. Constant displaying of still picture can cause uneven wear of screen phosphor, which will affect image quality. To
reduce risk of this effect, please follow below recommendations:
• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.
• Always try to display any image on full screen, use TV set picture format menu for best possible match.
• Reduce brightness and contrast values to minimum required to achieve desired picture quality, exceeded values may speed up the burnout process.
• Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burnout, refer to proper user manual section for details.
Securing the Installation Space
Keep the required distances between the product and other objects (e.g. walls) to ensure proper ventilation.
Failing to do so may result in fire or a problem with the product due to an increase in the internal temperature of the product.
✎✎ When using a stand or wall-mount, use parts provided by Samsung Electronics only.
xx If you use parts provided by another manufacturer, it may result in a problem with the product or an injury due to the product falling.

Issues
Solutions and Explanations
Picture Quality
First of all, please perform the Picture Test and confirm that your TV is properly displaying test image.
(go to MENU - Support - Self Diagnosis - Picture Test) (P. 16)
If the test image is properly displayed, the poor picture may caused by the source or signal.
The TV image does not look as good as it
did in the store.
• If you have an analogue cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use HDMI or Component
cables to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.
• Cable/Satellite subscribers: Try HD stations from the channel line up.
• Antenna connection: Try HD stations after performing Auto programme.
✎✎ Many HD channels are upscaled from SD(Standard Definition) contents.
• Adjust the Cable/Set top box video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.
• Make sure you are watching the TV at the minimum recommended distance based on the size and
definition of the signal.
The picture is distorted: macroblock error,
small block, dots, pixelization
• Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion especially in fast moving pictures such
as sports and action movies.
• Low signal level or bad quality can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV issue.
• Mobile phones used close to the TV (up to 3.3 ft) may cause noise in picture on analog and digital TV.
Colour is wrong or missing.
• If you’re using a component connection, make sure the component cables are connected to the
correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause colour problems or a blank screen.
There is poor colour or brightness.
• Adjust the Picture options in the TV menu. (go to Picture mode / Colour / Brightness / Sharpness)
• Adjust Energy Saving option in the TV menu. (go to MENU - Picture - ECO solution - Energy
Saving) (P. 11)
• Try resetting the picture to view the default picture settings. (go to MENU - Picture - Picture Reset)
There is a dotted line on the edge of the
screen.
• If the picture size is set to Screen Fit, change it to 16:9. (P. 12)
• Change cable/set top box resolution.
The picture is black and white.
• If you are using an AV composite input, connect the video cable (yellow) to the Green jack of
component input 1 on the TV.
When changing channels, the picture
freezes or is distorted or delayed.
• If connected with a cable box, please try to reset the cable box. Reconnect the AC cord and wait until
the cable box reboots. It may take up to 20 minutes.
• Set the output resolution of the cable box to 1080i or 720p.
Sound Quality
First of all, please perform the Sound Test to confirm that your TV audio is properly operating.
(go to MENU - Support - Self Diagnosis - Sound Test) (P. 19)
If the audio is OK, the sound problem may caused by the source or signal.
There is no sound or the sound is too low
at maximum volume.
• Please check the volume the of external device connected to your TV.
The picture is good but there is no sound.
• Set the Speaker Select option to TV speaker in the sound menu. (P. 14)
• If you are using an external device, make sure the audio cables are connected to the correct audio
input jacks on the TV.
• If you are using an external device, check the device’s audio output option (ex. you may need to
change your cable box’s audio option to HDMI when you have a HDMI connected to your TV).
• If you are using a DVI to HDMI cable, a separate audio cable is required.
• If your TV has a headphone jack, make sure there is nothing plugged into it.
The speakers are making an inappropriate
noise.
• Check the cable connections. Make sure a video cable is not connected to an audio input.
• For antenna or cable connections, check the signal strength. Low signal level may cause sound
distortion.

Ensure the Sleep Timer is set to Off in the Setup menu. (P. 15)
If your PC is connected to the TV, check your PC power settings.

When watching TV from an antenna or cable connection, the TV will turn off after 10 ~ 15 minutes if
there is no signal.
RF(Cable/Antenna) Connection
The TV is not receiving all channels.
• Make sure the Antenna cable is connected securely.

• Verify the Antenna is positioned correctly.
The picture is distorted: macroblock error
small block, dots, pixelization
• Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion, especially with fast moving pictures
such as sports and action movies.
• A low signal can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV issue.

The cable/set top box remote control
doesn’t turn the TV on or off, or adjust the

Solutions and Explanations
Your settings are lost after 30 minutes or
every time the TV is turned off.
• If the TV is in the Store Demo mode, it will reset audio and picture settings every 30 minutes. Change
the settings from Store Demo mode to Home Use mode in the Plug & Play (Initial setup) procedure.
Press the SOURCE button to select TV mode, and go to MENU → Setup → Plug & Play (Initial
setup) → ENTERE. (P. 6)
You have intermittent loss of audio or
video.
• Check the cable connections and reconnect them.
• Loss of audio or video can be caused by using overly rigid or thick cables. Make sure the cables are
flexible enough for long term use. If mounting the TV to the wall, we recommend using cables with 90
degree connectors.
You see small particles when you look
closely at the edge of the frame of the TV.
• This is part of the product’s design and is not a defect.
The PIP menu is not available.
• PIP functionality is only available when you are using a HDMI, PC or components source. (P. 16)
You turned the TV off 45 minutes ago, and
it turned on again.
• It is normal. The TV operates the OTA (Over The Aerial) function itself to upgrade firmware
downloaded whilst your watching TV.
There are recurrent picture/sound issues.
• Check and change the signal/source.
A reaction may occur between the rubber
cushion pads on the base stand and the
top finish of some furniture.
• To prevent this, use felt pads on any surface of the TV that comes in direct contact with furniture.
